Answer:
As you move across a period the electrons are being added to the same shell. But, protons are being added as well. This makes the nucleus more positively charged and, increasing protons has a greater effect than electrons. So, there is a greater nuclear attraction and, because the electrons are being added to the same shell that shell gets pulled in more. This causes a decrease in atomic radius.
Explanation:
Atomic # 64
electronic configuration is *[Xe] 6s^2 4f^8
n = 4
ℓ = 3
mℓ<span> = -3</span>
ms<span> = -½</span>
I would say soil would be your best option. This is because out of all these, soil collects a lot of different substances and could have easily absorbed something that then killed the organism.
Answer:
They are in a periodic table
Answer:
The correct option is B
Explanation:
The number of valence electron(s) increases across the period and thus influences the direction of periodic trend of electronegativity, electron affinity and ionization energy across the period. Thus, making option B the answer.
It should be noted that option A is wrong because elements in the same period generally have the same number of electron shells and thus the distance of this shells from the nucleus remains the same throughout the same period and thus option C is also wrong. Option D is wrong because the periodic trends have to do with chemical reactions which actually involves electrons and not protons.
